Okfuskee Gift of Love

11/16/2021

Good afternoon Okfuskee County! We would like to say an immense thank you to everyone that has shown interest in supporting our community! With all of the generous donations that have been received, we will not be utilizing the Angel Tree this year. Gifts will be purchased through the Gift of Love fund. If you are still interested in supporting our local children, monetary donations can be made to the Okfuskee County Gift of Love fund through BancFirst. Please let us know if you’d like more information on how to make a donation.

Thank you all again, we could not provide without all of your continued dedication and support! ❤️🎅🏼

Applications are now available at the Okfuskee Health Department! The applications are on the left as soon as you walk in the door. If you have any questions please ask this page. The Health Department has been gracious enough to let us use a table in their space, but they will not be able to answer your questions. A big thank you to the Health Department for allowing us to do this! Applications are due back November 8th!

Hi all! We are happy to announce that Gift of Love will be open for community applications once again! (As always, children in DHS custody in Okfuskee Co. will be included.) Applications will open on October 25th and more information about that is to come. If you know of any families in need please encourage them to complete an application. With the DHS office closing it will look a little different this year, but we have some awesome community partners stepping up to help us make this happen. We appreciate the support this community is always so ready to provide! 💚❤️

With heavy hearts we have to announce that Gift of Love will only be provided to children in DHS custody in Okfuskee County this year. We understand how important this program is to our community and have not taken this decision lightly. We have to make a lot of face to face contact and that is a risk this year due to COVID-19. We are saddened by this and hope next year to bring the program back.

We will have tags for children who are in DHS custody in our county. Those will be posted on this page in the near future with instructions on how to claim and return.

We appreciate your grace and understanding as we navigate through a new, virtual way of doing things this year.
